Ultra-compact motherboard offers many features and excellent performance

The Intel® Next Unit of Computing (NUC) is a small PC kit powered by an Intel Core i7 processor. In its 8th Generation form, it provides responsive performance and energy efficiency at the same time. The UltraNUC Pro i7 is a fully-built PC based on the 8th Generation NUC in a tiny package with the main improvements over the standard UltraNUC (7th Generation NUC) include faster CPU performance, better 3D graphics, a SDXC card slot and improved built-in WiFi and Bluetooth.

Even though the NUC is small in size, it is just as versatile as a full-sized computer whilst being convenient enough to be portable. The HDMI and mini-DisplayPort outputs provide full 4K resolution as well as 7.1 digital audio output (a capable AV Receiver is required).

You can easily travel with the NUC and simply connect it to an LCD TV at the place you're travelling to - a remote office, hotel room or friend's house. A whole host of capabilities are possible when connected to the internet via broadband. The NUC is the epitome of versatility and portability. Alternatively, you can enjoy an uncluttered desk with the NUC mounted somewhere out of the way - even behind your monitor, with the included VESA mount!

We offer the UltraNUC Pro i7 with an Intel Core i7 8809G Quad Core CPU, which runs at 3.1 GHz and turbo boosts to 4.2 GHz. Alternatively, there is the Intel Core i7 8705G Quad Core CPU version which has the same clock speed as the i7-8809G but the turbo drops from 4.2 to 4.1 GHz. There is also a difference in the performance of the Radeon Vega graphics used in each NUC. The i7 8809G features the Radeon RX Vega M GH graphics while the i7 8705G uses Radeon RX Vega M GL graphics. To give you an idea on the performance of GL version, it is equivalent to the nVidia GTX 1050Ti and the GH version is around a 40% increase in performance compared to the GL.

Clean Build™ Promise

The price of many pre-built PCs these days is often supported by cash kickbacks from software companies who pay hardware manufacturers to pre-install limited or trial versions of their software and then hope that the customer pays to upgrade to the full version. The downside to this approach is that the new PC comes pre-loaded with a lot of "junkware" which bloats the operating system and can cause severe performance degradation.

Here at Quiet PC we believe that customers have every right to expect the best possible performance from a brand new PC, so every system we build comes with our Clean Build™ promise. We install the operating system (if you order one), motherboard drivers, OS updates and Microsoft Security Essentials / Windows Defender - that's it. You won't be pestered by pop-ups and nag screens and you can get on with using your new PC immediately without having to uninstall lots of junkware first. Your new machine will boot in super-quick time and will stay running quickly for many months and years to come.

Free hardware support and fully inclusive warranty

We offer free hardware technical support for as long as you own the machine. This support covers any hardware query or problem, including advice on maintenance and upgrades. We regret we can't offer software support or training so we would recommend contacting the software vendor in this instance.

Our hardware warranty runs for two years and is "collect and return" meaning that you don't need to worry about getting the machine back to us - we will instruct our courier to collect it from you on a day of your choosing, then after we have checked and repaired it, we will send it back to you by express courier at our expense. In addition, unlike many other PC suppliers, we have an "open-case" policy which means you are free to open the machine and perform your own minor modifications or upgrades without worrying that your warranty might be affected.

Noise levels

Intel have not published the noise levels of the i7 NUC so we thought that we would mention them. The i7 NUC is supplied with one small fan that is used to cool the CPU. At idle the fan noise is just about noticeable in a very quiet room. The noise becomes more noticeable as the temperature of the CPU increases. Therefore we recommend either the i3 or i5 NUC if you are looking for the quietest option although if performance is more important then the i7 will fit the bill.
